I Am CMU

One moment, many countries

On any given day, hundreds of CMU students are living in far-flung regions of the globe, learning about life and the building blocks of their careers that will serve them far into the future.

Centralight asked a group of students studying abroad in the fall 2006 semester to paint a picture of their lives through words and photos on a randomly chosen fall day – October 25 – to share a moment that transcends continents.
